So, the Isles may not have a top ranked 1st line but feel we have one of the best 2nd lines in the league.

Seguin - J Staal - Couture

IMHO this line would challenge the top line of half of the teams in the league.

Also, our top 4 D may not be rated up there with the best but we have as much young potential as any, and that by season end Elliott, B Smith ans Orlov could all be 30-40 point guys with D Hamilton a darkhorse to be the same.

I can honestly say that having the best top line doesn't mean anything without balance throughout the lineup. Look at the perennial contenders... The Isles have crazy depth all around, and very effective budget allocation throughout the lineup. His top forward is just over 6 mil, and have many good value contracts throughout the lineup.

Buffalo doesn't have any forwards over 5 mil, LA's got some top-6 guys on the 3rd line and 6 top-4 D-men, Washington's got like 5 good forward lines, and Curt just stacks Canucks :P

Hey guys, leaving tomorrow for the east coast. Don't know how much internet access I'll have, I'd say a little bit every 2-3 days. Get back on the 15th/16th, back home for 3/4 days and leave again for 5 days. Will only have a little bit of internet during that period.

Still looking for a vet d.

And similiar to TM, although we don't have the strongest top 4 per say, we've got quite a few up and comers in Kulikov, Petry, Brennan, Blum and Klefbom. We're hoping 2 of those last 3 will make it to the big league this year.

I am heading out for my birthday/golf weekend, and won't be checking in much over the next three days. If you have UFA offers in with me, I likely won't have much time until probably Tuesday to get to them. I should be able to respond to PM's, though.

Just thought y'all should know.
